2004+ Subaru Impreza WRX/STI Front Lip (polyurethane)

Polyurethane is a flexible material. Occasionally during shipping, sections of the lip may warp or bend in unusual shapes. DO NOT WORRY! Simply lay the lip flat and out in the sun for a day and it will return to its normal shape.

This will fix the waviness problem.

He said the climate controls were relocated and it was the hottest thing he has ever seen. He asks if you can do it and you respond, “Of course I can do it! We are professionals and can do anything!” Now you made sure your boss didn’t hear what you just said because you knew he would remind you of the last time you tackled a dash rebuild and the customer came back a dozen times because the awesome dash you constructed did not wear well. In fact, once every two months you had to sand it down, fill
